The marina loosens its grip on the shore as you push off in a fast center-console that hums past sea lions and bobbing pangas. Salt spray drafts across your face; the Pacific and Sea of Cortez split the horizon and the captain trims for the first drift. Lines go out, reels click, and the water—always testing—pushes the boat into its rhythm.

Take motion-sickness meds ahead of time
If you’re prone to seasickness, take medication at least 30–60 minutes before departure; rolling seas are possible even on short trips.
